Vapor Shrinkage Tester
I. Product Overview
TheVapor Shrinkage Testeris a specialized thermal analysis instrument designed to measure dimensional changes in textiles, polymers, or composites when exposed to steam or saturated vapor environments. It simulates industrial finishing processes (e.g., sanforization) to evaluate shrinkage resistance and dimensional stability of materials.
- Type: Environmental test chamber with steam generation
- Test Temperature: Ambient +20°C to 100°C
- Steam Pressure: 0.1-0.3 MPa (adjustable)
- Chamber Size: 500×500×600mm (W×D×H)
- Applications: Textile finishing, geotextiles, medical fabrics

IV. Compliance Standards
- ISO 6330 (Textile testing - Textile fabrics)
- ASTM D3759 (Shrink resistance of fabrics)
- AATCC 133 (Dimensional changes in fabrics)
- GB/T 8629 (Chinese textile shrinkage standard)
V. Applications
- Textile Manufacturing:Pre-shrinkage treatment validation
- Quality Control:Batch testing of finished fabrics
- R&D:Developing shrink-resistant coatings
- Forensic Analysis:Evaluating garment shrinkage causes
Standard Test Procedure:
- Sample Preparation: Cut 50×50mm specimens
- Loading: Secure in steam-permeable clamps
- Parameter Setup: Select steam pressure/temperature
- Exposure: Run test cycle (typically 30-60min)
- Analysis: Compare pre/post-test dimensions via software
Safety Precautions:
- Use heat-resistant gloves when handling samples
- Maintain 1m clearance from steam vents
- Decontaminate chamber after testing chemicals
